Course Three: Building Resilient SDE Community
This purchase is for the self-guided course for The ASDE Compendium: Building Resilient Community.
SDE thrives in community—and building that community takes intention. In this course, we explore the structures, cultures, and practices that are central to SDE communities (centers and schools). Topics include conflict engagement, decision-making, iteration, and building strong and sustainable culture. Founders and staff get honest about the real struggles, challenges, and deep transformations that have happened for them and others in SDE communities. This course is perfect for folks who want to start, transform, or strengthen SDE communities.
